CSF and EDTA blood samples were obtained from all patients and processed as described previously (19 (link)). Briefly, cells from CSF or 100 μl EDTA blood were incubated in VersaLyse buffer (Beckman Coulter; Brea, CA) for 10 min and subsequently washed three times with PBS supplemented with 2% heat-inactivated FCS and 2 mM EDTA.

Analysis was conducted with Kaluza V1.2. Lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes were selected based on forwards scatter channel, sideward scatter channel, CD14, and CD45 expression characteristics. Lymphocytes subsets were selected as CD3+CD4+ (T helper cells), CD3+CD8+ (cytotoxic T cells), CD3+HLA-DR+ (activated T cells), CD3CD56+ (NK cells), CD3CD19+ (B cells), CD3CD19+CD138+ (plasma cells), whereas monocyte subsets were selected as CD14+CD16 (classical monocytes), CD14+CD16+ (non-classical monocytes) cells.

Multiparameter flow cytometry of immune cells in PB and CSF samples was done as described previously (24 (link), 29 (link)). During lumbar puncture CSF was sampled into polypropylene tubes. All CSF samples were processed in < 20 min. Cells were isolated from CSF by centrifugation (15 min, 290 g, 4°C) and subsequent incubation in VersaLyse buffer (Beckman Coulter, Germany). PB samples were collected in EDTA monovettes and cells were isolated by using VersaLyse buffer. For immunostainings, the following fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies were used: CD14-FITC, CD138-PE, HLA-DR-ECD, CD3-PC5.5, CD56-PC7, CD4-APC, CD19-APC-Alexafluor700, CD16-APC-Alexafluor750, CD8-PacificBlue, and CD45-KromeOrange (all from Beckman-Coulter).

CSF Immune Cell Profiling in Rapid GCA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Patients with rapid progressive GCA were compared to a group of 12 age-matched patients retrospectively diagnosed with somatoform disorders without any signs of inflammatory CSF conditions (ie, <5 cells/μl CSF, <2 mmol/l lactate, no blood/CSF-barrier disruption, no intrathecal immunoglobulin synthesis [Reiber/OCB]). CSF samples were analyzed within 1 hour after lumbar puncture by centrifugation at 290 g for 15 minutes at 4 C in parallel with 100 μl peripheral blood. Blood-tinged CSF samples were excluded from the study. After treatment with VersaLyse buffer (Beckman Coulter) for 10 minutes, the samples were washed twice by addition of 3 ml FC-buffer (PBS [Sigma] supplemented with 2% heat-inactivated FCS Gold [BioSell] and 2 mM EDTA [Sigma]) and subsequent centrifugation at 290 g for 4 minutes. Following staining with CD14-FITC, CD3-PC5.5, CD56-PC7, CD4-APC, CD19-APC-AF700, CD8-PacificBlue, and CD45-KromeOrange (all Beckman Coulter), samples were washed once with FC buffer. After aspirating the supernatant, samples were resuspended and 20 μl flow count fluorospheres (Beckman Coulter) were added prior to acquisition using a Navios flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter). Resulting files were analyzed by Kaluza 2.1 (Beckman Coulter).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
